Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The HCR-20 is a tool used for structured professional judgment in assessing risk for violence and is not an actuarial method which uses statistical models to predict risk. It is also not an anamnestic approach which focuses on a patient's medical history in making the assessment. The tool is structured and objective, making it different from unstructured professional judgment, and it is not an adjusted-actuarial approach which combines both actuarial and professional judgment methods.
